HONESDALE, PA — The ServSafe Food Safety Manager course, conducted by Penn State Extension, will be held at the Penn State Extension Office, 648 W. Park St., Suite E. Participants need to register by Monday, April 8.
The course will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday, April 11, and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., on Thursday, April 18. The exam will begin at 11 a.m. on April 18.
These in-person trainings, taught by certified ServSafe instructors, will help participants learn how to prevent contamination of food by properly receiving, storing, preparing, cooking, cooling and serving the food, as well as proper methods of sanitizing food service facilities.
After completing the course and passing the multiple-choice exam with a score of 70 percent or higher, participants will receive a ServSafe Food Protection Manager certificate. The certification is good for five years.
The new, lower course fee of $165 covers the cost of the most recent edition of the ServSafe Manager book, exam, answer sheet and learning materials. To attend the in-person ServSafe course and exam, participants should register by April 8.
The course helps food service managers, chefs, caterers, cooks, health officials and inspectors prepare to take an exam, such as ServSafe, that meets regulatory guidelines for a certified food protection manager. The online portion can be taken at any time, but the exam is in person and proctored at a scheduled location.
If you are uncertain as to whether you need certification, contact your regional Department of Agriculture office.
Penn State Extension will follow applicable state and local restrictions and Penn State COVID-19 guidelines in effect at the time of an event regarding masking, social distancing and facility capacity limits.
